研究生复试英语面试指导

英语面试常用问题

传统面试问题（Sample Traditional Interview Questions）

1、What can you tell me about yourself?（关于你自己，你能告诉我些什么？）

这一问题如果面试没有安排自我介绍的时间的话。这是一个必问的问题。考官并不希望你大谈你的个人历史，他是在寻找有关你性格、资历、志向和生活动力的线索，来判断你是否适合读研或者MBA。下面是一个积极正面回答的好例子：“在高中我参加各种竞争性体育活动，并一直努力提高各项运动的成绩。大学期间，我曾在一家服装店打工，我发现我能轻而易举地将东西推销出去。销售固然重要，但对我来说，更重要的是要确信顾客能够满意。不久便有顾客返回那家服装店点名让我为他们服务。我很有竞争意识，力求完美对我很重要。”

In high school I was involved in competitive sports and I always tried to improve in each sport I participated in. As a college student, I worked in a clothing store part-time and found that I could sell things easily. The sale was important, but for me, it was even more important to make sure that the customer was satisfied. It was not long before customers came back to the store and specifically asked for me to help them. I’m very competitive and it means a lot to me to be the best.

2、 What would you like to be doing five years after graduation?（在毕业以后5年内你想做些什么？）

你要清楚你实际上能胜任什么。你可以事先和其他的MBA交流一番。问问他们在毕业后在公司的头5年都做了些什么。可以这样回答：“我希望能在我的职位上尽力做好工作，由于在同一领域工作的许多人都被提为区域负责人，所以我亦有此打算。”

I hope to do my best I can be at my job and because many in this line of work are promoted to area manager, I am planning on that also.

3. What is your greatest strength?（你最突出的优点是什么？）

这是很多面试考官喜欢问的一个问题，这是你\"展示自己\"的最佳机会，不要吹嘘自己或过于自负，但要让雇主知道你相信自己，你知道自己的优点。如可答：“我认为我最大的优点是能够执着地尽力把事情办好。当做完一件工作而其成果又正合我的预想时，我会有一种真正的成就感。我给自己定了一些高目标。比如说，我要成为出色的毕业生。尽管在大学一年级时我启动慢了些，但最终我以优等论文完成了学业。”

I feel that my strongest asset is my ability to stick to things to get them done. I feel a real sense of accomplishment when I finish a job and it turns out just as I’d planned. I’ve set some high goals for myself. For example, I want to graduate with highest distinction. And even though I had a slow start in my freshman year, I made up for it by doing an honor’s thesis.

4. What is your greatest weakness?（你最大的弱点是什么？）

你不应该说你没有任何弱点，以此来回避这个问题。每个人都有弱点，最佳策略是承认你的弱点，但同时表明你在予以改进，并有克服弱点的计划。可能的话，你可说出一项

可能会给公司带来好处的弱点，如可说：“我是一个完美主义者。工作做得不漂亮，我是不会撒手的。”

I'm such a perfectionist that I will not stop until a job is well done.

5. How do you feel about your progress to date?\"（对于你至今所取得的进步你是怎样看的？）

绝不要对你以前的所作所为表示内疚。如可答：“我认为我在学校表现不错。事实上，有好几门功课我的成绩居全班第一。在某公司实习时，我获得了该公司数年来给予其雇员的好几项最高评价。”

I think I did well in school. In fact, in a number of courses I received the highest exam scores in the class. As an intern for the X Company, I received some of the highest evaluations that had been given in years.

6.What do you think is the most important as a manager?

在面试快结束的时候，一般考官都会问，你有没有什么要问的。除非你是最后一个面试者，你明显感到所有的考官都急切的想离开，一般不适合说“I don’t have any question.”可以问考官一两个你关心的问题（Questions you should ask the recruiter）：

7.What changes do you anticipate in our school? （你希望我们学校会有些什么样的变化）

8.Which is the best course in our school? (什么课程是我们院最好的课程)

9.does our school provide some guidance of job to MBA?

最后可以说：Thank you for giving me the chance. I hope to see you again and soon. （谢谢您给我机会，我希望很快能再见到您。）

三、作自我介绍——职业发展（making a self-introduction ——career development）这是很关键的一部分，也是MBA考官会重点考察的一部分。要把工作经历和MBA的学习以及职业发展方向作为一个整体来谈，让老师感到你选择MBA是一个理性的选择而不是一时冲动，选择MBA是职业发展中的一个必然选择，而不是因为找不到工作。你可以用这些句型: 1、In the past years, I’ve worked at IBM as a software engineer. In my work, I found communication and management is very important. I always believe that one will easily lag behind unless he keeps on learning. So I choose MBA! if I am given a chance to study MBA in this famous University, I will stare no effort to master a good command of communication and management skill.（在过去的几年中，我作为一个软件工程师在IBM工作。在工作中，我发现交流和管理非常的重要。我一直认为一个人很容易落后，如果不持续学习的话，所以我选择了MBA！如果我有机会在这个著名的大学学习MBA，我会不遗余力的掌握沟通和管理的技能。）

2.Held a post concurrently in Zhongxing CPA. from December,1998 to May,1999. and mainly worked on evaluating project finance and made up cash flow tables.（1998年11月至1999年5月在中兴会计师事务所兼职，主要从事财务评价、现金流量表的编制分析和产业的市场调查与跟踪研究等。）3.

5. Production manager: Initiated quality control resulting in a reduction in working hours by 20% while increasing productivity by 25%.(生产部经理:引入质量控制，使工作时数减少了20%，而生产力则提高了25%。)

6. Staff member of Shanxi Textiles Import and Export Company. Handled import of textiles from , , Taiwan. Increased sales by 25% from 1990 to 1993. Made frequent business trips to these places to negotiate with textile mills. (山西纺织品进出口公司职员。处理从、、进口纺织品事宜。从1990年到1993年增加了25%的销售额。经常出差到这些地方跟纺织厂商洽谈。7.

In addition to ordinary sales activities and management of department, responsible for recruiting and training of sales staff members. (销售部经理。除了正常销售活动和部门管理之外，还负责招聘与训练销售人员。)关于过去工作的描述是很重要的，同学们一定要熟记这些句型。要根据自己的工作经历改造这些句子。 如果你的工作有过比较多的改变，你可以这样来描述原因:

9. Unfortunately I have had to leave my position, as my employers have been

forced to liquidate their business due to the worldwide economic adversity.（很不幸地，本人不得不离职，因这一次世界性的经济不景气，使我的雇主不得不结束业务。）

10.The only reason why I am leaving the present position is to gain more experience in a trading office. （本人之所以离开目前的工作岗位，唯一的理由是希望能在一家贸易公司获得更多的经验。）

Self-introduction:

Good morning, everyone! I am glad to be here for this interview. First,

let me introduce myself to you. My name is Qin Jiayin. I was born on April

23, 1981. I am a local person.I am graduating from Jilin Normal University

(应该是这样译) this June. I major in Chinese literature. I hope I could get the

opportunity to finish my postgraduate courses in Jilin University which I

have desired for a long time. I have the confidence because I have such

ability! I am a girl who is fervent, outgoing and creative. At the same

time, I think I am quick in mind and careful in everything. I am looking

forward to my postgraduate studies and life. I will soon prove that your

decision of choosing me is the wisest. Thank you for giving me such a

valuable opportunity!

Reasons for taking postgraduate exams:

First of all, I love my major. Chinese literature is the symbol of the

start of Chinese literary modernization. It plays an important part in

modernization of our citizens’ thoughts. What’s more, modern literature is

very close to our daily life and it can deeply reflect the styles and

features of our society. I am fascinated by the great masters’ refreshing

or warm or profound styles as well. But I am not easily satisfied with

such superficial knowledge. I hope I could have a better understanding in

modern literature by studying further. This is a very important reason for

me to take the postgraduate exams.

Next, I love the feeling in the university. It is full of youthful

spirit. And I am deeply attracted by the scholarly atmosphere. And the

most important, it’s my great honor to open my ears to your teaching.

Finally, I want to talk about a very practical problem. That is my

dream of becoming a teacher in the university. I want to realize my dream

and make myself to be a well-qualified person. I think the postgraduate

studies can enrich my knowledge and make me competent in my future job.

That’s my simple and clear reasons why I took the postgraduate exams.

My university:

I’m graduating form Jilin Normal University this June which has a

history of 50 years. It shares many same characteristics with Jilin

University. Both of them have a refreshing and scholarly atmosphere. Four

years’ studying there made me an independent, optimistic and strict girl.

I appreciate the education my university gave me.
